Doctor Strange Page #4

I promise.

No!

Love...

Ioss...

pain.

They are stones in the wall

that block your path, Stephen.

What... Are you...

Are you really here?

See the wall for what it is,

and then tear it down,

for the truth is waiting.

What truth?

That your sister

could not be saved.

How can you say that?

She died on my table.

She trusted me!

You are a natural healer, Stephen,

but not all lives

are destined to be saved.

It was out of your hands.

I don't believe that.

And that is what has

chained you to this place.

Accept the truth...

and break free.

You stand at the foot of the wall.

What is your next move?

You helped him?

Just a little.

He is ready.

Master, what is it? What do you see?

Chinou... two of them.

They advance on the sanctum.

They will attack

from opposite sides.

I will assemble teams.

No, Mordo.

It will take all of you

to stop even one.

Begin with the nearest threat,

and then on to the next.

But, Master, I believe

we are strong enough

to engage them on both fronts.

Believe what you will,

but do as you are commanded.

From here, we divide

into two teams.

Stephen.

Not quitting. Just resting.

This gets more difficult

every day.

Only as difficult as you allow.

I'd say gravity and solid mass

have a little something to say about it, too.

You perceive these stones to be heavy.

Therefore, they are.

But to the chosen few...

weight is meaningless.

How do you do these things?

By learning to accept

the unacceptable.

Pull the rope again,

and I will assist.

Hey!

You perceived

it was without weight,

so it became weightless.

Matter is energy

which is all around us.

Sorcery is simply the art

of wielding that energy.

A weapon forged from air?

Tell me, is it real?

Doesn't look like it.

This time, you believed it was real.

Control the forces

around your hands,

and limitations become irrelevant.

What happened to the wall?

You perceived it,

so it was there.

But now you have accepted

the unacceptable,

and the wall

no longer blocks your path.

It is time you see what lies beyond.

Blue! Demara!

Throw up a containment spell!

Mordo, their spell will not stop it!

Tell them to move out of the way!

No! It will hold!

I've got you.

Are you all right?

I'll be fine.

So many innocent lives,

and four of our own.

Our brothers, our sisters...

their bodies lie at your feet, Mordo!

We were victorious.

The chinou was slain,

and the sanctum was defended.

I regret nothing.

You have lost sight

of our purpose, Mordo.

You focus only on the battle.

But we are protectors,

not warriors.

Yet we fight a war,

so perhaps a warrior

should take the lead.

Mordo!

You feel I should step down, Mordo.
